To My First Love

~Sunflower~

Sunflower, there you go shining again. You're bright and straightforward, planted and never swaying. A real noble flower. Something came upon me today as you told me a little about what's been going around your end. It's not this revelation but today I can see you so clearly as the sunflower I've always seen you. My heart swells with how much I love that you are this visual that is vivid and radiant. The visual that expresses and compiles you perfectly. Can you see it? The clear blue skies with the cotton clouds above. A warm breeze as you stand center to my vision and enveloping me in with your golden face. A real fantasy.

Sunflower, there you are under the sun. Mirroring the bright star and burning bright with your yellow petals. Standing tall and higher than any flower; you were made to stand out. Oh how incredible you are... your long stalk doesn't bend or curve; it's straight as an arrow. An arrow... Yes. I believe that's a good way to look at your stem! Always moving forward to a clear direction, you're a forceful charge. It's completely admirable and that's all I've thought about you today. I'm weak falling at the bright confidence you exude and the strength you carry. How I could stare at you constantly and never tire. You are peace.

Sunflower, you shine every day. You are an incredible sight and a loved, cherished and praised person. Never forget how tall you stand. How warm your core is and the way your glowing yellow jewels emit light in thousands of golden hues. Don't worry about the winds because I know they won't sway you one bit. Don't you dare ever close up for a second because you were made to showcase all the gorgeous colours you have to offer. You are the relieving sight to an aching heart. The serene smile that is effortless upon my lips. You are one of a kind and I pray you always stay as you are.

Hey... Sunflower?

I believe in you.
